PARKER:

Don’t waste your time talkin’ to that asshole.  That little Spanish guy is a prick.  You wanna talk to the guy with the red glasses.  He’s no joke.  He come in here and tell everybody to shut the fuck up and he answers your questions out-loud, this way nobody bothers the guards.  He’s the only guy that’s gonna answer any of your questions.

(beat)

Damn man, usually they try to freeze a nigga, today they trying to burn a nigga.

(beat)

Hotta then a motherfucka.  

(looks at his watch)

Sposed to be at work now at two o’clock.  They tell me I’d be out before twelve.  It’s two fifteen now.  They tell you whatever they gotta tell you to cuff you and then they don’t give a shit.  Judge come to work whenever the fuck he want.  Taken lunch breaks for three hours while we’re all down here in the dungeon, sweating our balls off.  Sixty men in a cell, with all these stank ass homeless feet.  Make you wanna vomit just thinking about it.  Swatting these flies and shit.  Damn!  Nigga gotta get up sometime.  Gotta get up sometime…

Tellin’ me I resisted arrest.  Fuck that resisted arrest.  I was like, what are you locking me up for and I’ll tell you if I’m resisting or not.  They beat me down with their clubs and shit saying I tried to get away.  Nigga you beatin’ me with your club, what I’m sposed to do?  Stand there and get hit?  Niggas be frontin’ cause they know, they know they scared shit I’m gonna sue.  They afraid of losing their jobs cause they know they took shit too far with me.  Look at my pants son.  Look like I been stepped on forty nine times.  My knees are swollen and everything.  I refused to go to the hospital.  Fuck that.  

(beat)

I’m only five-six, so I got the little man complex bad yo.  They roll up on me, what I’m sposed to do?  I threw my shit down the subways stairs.  They didn’t see that, so what they lockin’ me up for?  Know what I’m sayin?

It’s all played out.  The whole motherfuking system is all played out.  City needs money, that’s why they goin’ around picking on ya’ll.  Criminals ain’t doing there thing out there right now cause of the recession.  Shit, that’s why they make a big deal out of nothin.  They hungry!  They so damn hungry man!
